  What is Direct Democracy Ireland?

  Direct Democracy Ireland is a new political service whose aim is to restore the provisions of direct democracy to the people of Ireland, and by doing so:

   
  • To provide the people of Ireland an alternative to the current model of governance which will ensure that election promises are kept and that the interests of the people of Ireland are the deciding factor in all decisions of the government.
   
  • To create the situation whereby the people of Ireland chose their own representatives via a consultative process in local communities, and are truly represented by their government.
   
  • To create the situation whereby the government of Ireland are truly accountable for their actions.
   
  • To create the situation whereby the current arrangement of political parties in opposition to each other and employing the party whip system to enforce the party line becomes obsolete.

  On another note, we have now added a Donate button to the menu at the top of the page, please be so kind as to donate any amount of money you can afford, whether its just a euro or two, to help keep this website up to date with all the newest and most important documentaries. This site will be here for years to come regardless of donations because we believe this information is very important but every little donation helps to pay for server costs, hosting and bandwidth usage (which is very expensive in Ireland!). We are planning to move our site to a web server with unlimited bandwidth usage which would mean we could upload DVD quality versions of all of these documentaries to the site but bandwidth usage is the only thing stopping us. With just a few donations, we will be able to relocate our site to a better web server so that you can all benefit from top quality documentaries instead of the usual average quality from Google Video and YouTube, plus we would be able to offer download links too... Alternatively, you could help by clicking the ads on our site once in a while. Thanks for your support and enjoy the site! :)

• Deconstructing 6 Major Marijuana Myths

  May 18, 2014 by TheOpenSource.TV / 3,494 Views

  Author: Paul Fassa - NaturalNews.com

   

  (NaturalNews) Over the recent past few decades, the social stigma from the over-the-top absurdities of 1938's Reefer Madness have mostly evaporated. Millions have asserted they have at least tried marijuana without going insane and looking for stronger drugs to get "higher." Yet, today cannabis, a.k.a. marijuana, remains a DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) Schedule I drug, dangerous, addictive and without any medical merit.
  
  Let's examine and refute some of the propaganda that puts users in prison and holds this plant as a Schedule I drug.
  
  (1) No medical merit
  
  In 1974, the NIH (National Institutes of Health) funded the Virginia Medical College to do studies that would determine the damaging effects of marijuana, such as immune system damage. Instead, they found that marijuana reduced brain tumor growth in lab rats. The DEA stepped in and canceled the study and forced destruction of the study documents.
  
  Since then, there have been countless studies and testimonies proving cannabis efficacy at curing many diseases and maladies, including several cancers, effectively and without side effects.

• ACTA: The new threat to the Net

  Feb 2, 2012 by TheOpenSource.TV / 3,431 Views

  Last week, 3 million of us beat back America's attack on our Internet! -- but there is an even bigger threat out there, and our global movement for freedom online is perfectly poised to kill it for good.
  
  ACTA -- a global treaty -- could allow corporations to censor the Internet. Negotiated in secret by a small number of rich countries and corporate powers, it would set up a shadowy new anti-counterfeiting body to allow private interests to police everything that we do online and impose massive penalties -- even prison sentences -- against people they say have harmed their business.
  
  Europe is deciding right now whether to ratify ACTA -- and without them, this global attack on Internet freedom will collapse. We know they have opposed ACTA before, but some members of Parliament are wavering -- let's give them the push they need to reject the treaty. Sign the petition -- we'll do a spectacular delivery in Brussels when we reach 500,000 signatures:
